Feature: Replay the client requests #312

Closed bbros-dev closed 3 years ago

bbros-dev commented 3 years ago

Thanks for all the effort that has gone into this crate and for making it open source.

We're reviewing surf for a use case we didn't see in the doc or examples folders: Replaying the client requests.

Is this currently possible? We saw the documented case showing a case where the server response is loaded to be replayed, but not the corollary.

If not currently possible, would it be within the scope of surf?

This seems like it should be possible but I'm not familiar with an implementation yet. The closest is surf-vcr but that's probably what you're referring to as recording the server response. I believe the same general approach should be applicable to recording the outbound request with sufficient information to replay them

Apologies - wrong repo. I should move it.
